Oracle

Oracles are essential infrastructure components that feed real-time, off-chain data (such as price feeds, weather, or sports results) into blockchain smart contracts. Without decentralized oracles like Chainlink and Pyth, DeFi could not function. In 2026, oracles have evolved to support verifiable randomness and cross-chain data synchronization. This tag covers the technical evolution of data availability, tamper-proof price feeds, and the critical role oracles play in ensuring the deterministic execution of complex decentralized applications.

Friday charts: Ellison is having fun again

Friday charts: Ellison is having fun again

The post Friday charts: Ellison is having fun again appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This is a segment from The Breakdown newsletter. To read more editions, subscribe “Winning. That’s my idea of fun.” ― Larry Ellison Larry Ellison will never be featured in a habits-of-billionaires listicle. In the 2000s, while running one of the most important companies in the world, he typically strolled into the office at 1:30 in the afternoon. When he did arrive, he wasn’t always fully engaged. “He had a reputation for being easily bored by the process of running a business,” according to his biographer. He was often absent for long stretches, “leaving the shop to senior colleagues.” On earnings calls, Wall Street analysts asked how much time he’d spend on boats in the coming quarter. In short, he was the antithesis of the young tech founders profiled in The Wall Street Journal this morning — so devoted to work they barely take time to eat, let alone pursue an outside interest or go on a date. Ellison, by contrast, devoted years to competitive sailing, learned to pilot airplanes, bought an island, designed Japanese-inspired homes, regularly played tennis with Rafa Nadal and did enough dating to be married five times. All while running one of the world’s most important companies. When his first marriage ended in divorce in 1978, Ellison’s ex-wife thought so little of his prospects as a founder that she sold him her claim to the one-year-old Oracle for $500. (In three subsequent divorces, he again somehow managed to avoid surrendering any part of Oracle.) And yet, Ellison passed Elon Musk to become the world’s richest man this week — for the second time. The first time was in 2000, when he briefly passed Bill Gates near the height of the dotcom bubble. By then, Oracle’s ubiquitous databases had made the company one of the three main characters in…

Polymarket Taps Chainlink to Settle Price Bets

Polymarket Taps Chainlink to Settle Price Bets

The post Polymarket Taps Chainlink to Settle Price Bets appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Reportedly raising funding at a $3 billion valuation, Polymarket is working with Chainlink following its previous governance and oracle dilemmas. Polymarket, the largest onchain prediction market, has unveiled a partnership with top oracle provider Chainlink to settle markets related to asset prices. Chainlink’s data standard will be integrated into Polymarket’s resolution process in order to provide “near-instant” settlement and ensure accuracy standards. Currently, Polymarket resolutions can take hours depending on the circumstances. “Polymarket’s decision to integrate Chainlink’s proven oracle infrastructure is a pivotal milestone that greatly enhances how prediction markets are created and settled,” said Sergey Nazarov, the co-founder of Chainlink. “When market outcomes are resolved by high-quality data and tamper-proof computation from oracle networks, prediction markets evolve into reliable, real-time signals the world can trust.” Polymarket is also reportedly in the process of raising new funding, with at least one investor offering a term sheet that values the prediction market at “as much as $10 billion.” The move comes two months after Polymarket’s controversial resolution of the “Will President Zelenskyy Wear a Suit” market, where fashion experts opined that Ukrainian President Zelenskyy had worn an outfit that technically met the definition of a suit. However, Polymarket’s governance vote, decided via UMA, collectively decided that the market should resolve to “No” (not a suit), leaving those on the wrong side of the trade fuming. UMA will continue to be used for settling market disputes, while Chainlink’s oracles facilitate fast settlements for straightforward markets backed by data. Polymarket first launched in 2020, but activity surged in 2024 ahead of the U.S. presidential election, reaching an all-time high monthly volume of $2.5 billion in October 2024. While the platform’s volumes are down compared to its peak months, it still processes roughly $1 billion of volume per month, more than it did in…

Polymarket Teams With Chainlink on Fast Crypto Price Feeds

Polymarket Teams With Chainlink on Fast Crypto Price Feeds

The post Polymarket Teams With Chainlink on Fast Crypto Price Feeds appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Polymarket integrates Chainlink oracles for faster, tamper-proof crypto price resolutions Chainlink’s automation enables near-instant settlement for 15-minute prediction markets Polymarket expands with QCEX acquisition and X partnership to scale U.S. operations Polymarket has teamed up with Chainlink to launch crypto prediction markets that settle in 15 minutes with near-instant resolution. The integration is now live on Polygon mainnet and combines Polymarket’s platform with Chainlink’s oracle network. Why Chainlink Oracles Matter for Polymarket Chainlink Data Streams provide timestamped, low-latency price feeds while Chainlink Automation handles on-chain settlement. This removes delays that typically slow prediction markets and ensures tamper-proof, verifiable results. Near-Instant Settlement Boosts Market Reliability The system enables Bitcoin and other crypto markets to resolve almost instantly, reducing the risk of disputes. Hundreds of live trading pairs are covered in the first rollout, with plans to expand into more complex markets. What’s Next for Prediction Market Innovation Beyond price outcomes, Polymarket and Chainlink aim to tackle subjective markets that today depend on social voting, a step that could transform how prediction markets are run. Chainlink Secures Data Accuracy at Scale Chainlink’s oracle network already secures nearly $100 billion in DeFi value and supports tens of trillions in transactions.  Co-founder Sergey Nazarov called the partnership a step toward making prediction markets reliable real-time information sources. How Chainlink eliminates single points of failure is by decentralizing data inputs, thereby minimizing manipulation risks and strengthening user trust that match real market prices. Polymarket Expands With QCEX and X Partnerships Polymarket recently closed a $112 million acquisition of QCEX, a CFTC-licensed exchange and clearinghouse, to re-enter the U.S. market. The platform also struck a partnership with X to deliver personalized market recommendations. Why Polymarket’s Expansion Strategy Matters These moves highlight Polymarket’s intent to scale operations and attract institutional users while delivering new retail-focused services. Related:…

This is How Chainlink and Polymarket Could Change Crypto Bets

This is How Chainlink and Polymarket Could Change Crypto Bets

The post This is How Chainlink and Polymarket Could Change Crypto Bets appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Chainlink and Polymarket announced a partnership, aiming to use decentralized oracle technology to quickly resolve bets on-chain. These measures can make bet resolutions faster and more reliable. The two firms are also interested in applying this technology for more subjective bets, as Chainlink’s oracles specialize in concrete data like asset prices. Ideally, Polymarket could reduce resolution risks in all categories. Polymarket and Chainlink Join Forces Chainlink, a major blockchain infrastructure firm, has been making huge partnerships lately, attempting to target China’s RWA market and securing a large contract with the US government. Sponsored Sponsored Today’s announcement is slightly less grandiose, but still significant: Chainlink is partnering up with Polymarket. According to the firm’s press release, Chainlink is aiming to help Polymarket’s speed and accuracy. The company will employ its decentralized oracle networks to automatically settle asset price-related markets to reduce latency and tampering risks. This should allow many bet categories to resolve on-chain almost instantaneously. For now, it only applies to prediction markets covered by Chainlink Data Streams, ie, token prices, but this could change in the future. Potential for Growth Specifically, Chainlink mentioned exploring this technology for some of Polymarket’s more subjective betting categories, but it didn’t make any firm commitments. Still, many of the platform’s largest recent bets have involved events like celebrity gossip and sports outcomes. It’d be ideal to reduce reliance on social voting mechanisms for these markets, especially if they’re going to become a significant portion of the firm’s total volume. Kalshi, for its part, is already planning to make sports betting a major revenue stream, so the competition is bending in that direction. Chainlink added that this Polymarket update is already live on Polygon mainnet, enabling users to create “robust prediction markets around… hundreds of crypto trading pairs.” If these solutions prove popular with…

UBS, Chainlink, and DigiFT launch an RWA pilot in Hong Kong

UBS, Chainlink, and DigiFT launch an RWA pilot in Hong Kong

The post UBS, Chainlink, and DigiFT launch an RWA pilot in Hong Kong appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Hong Kong confirms itself as a testing ground for the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA): UBS, Chainlink and DigiFT have launched a pilot aimed at automating subscriptions, settlement, and lifecycle management of funds on a regulated infrastructure, as reported by CoinDesk.  According to data collected from industry reports and official communications, the pilot entered the operational phase on September 11, 2025, and received approval in the Cyberport Blockchain & Digital Asset Pilot Subsidy Scheme. Industry analysts note that the integration of on‑chain Digital Transfer Agents and smart contracts is expected to enhance auditability and reduce manual reconciliations in back‑office processes, objectives that will be monitored through defined KPIs in the project. Summary in Brief Objective: reduce reconciliation errors, increase transparency, and accelerate settlement speed in tokenized funds. Roles: DigiFT manages orders via smart contract; Chainlink provides the Digital Transfer Agent (DTA) contracts for instruction verification; UBS implements contracts compliant with CMTA standards. Context: growth of the RWA market and increased regulatory focus by Hong Kong on digital assets. Expected KPIs: settlement times, post-trade error rate, operating costs, and level of auditability. What Has Been Implemented The three companies are developing a joint solution, with end-to-end functions, for tokenized financial products. DigiFT receives subscription and redemption orders via smart contract, while Chainlink provides the Digital Transfer Agent (DTA) contracts, which verify the instructions and record them on-chain. In fact, correctly processed orders trigger issuances, redemptions, and other lifecycle events on UBS contracts, developed according to the “CMTA Token” standard of the Capital Markets and Technology Association CMTA. Operational flow: from on-chain signing to settlement Instruction: the investor sends a signed order via smart contract, using an authorized infrastructure. Validation: Chainlink’s Digital Transfer Agent (DTA) performs checks on eligibility, limits, and order consistency. Registration: the validated order is recorded on-chain, using a…

Polymarket integrates Chainlink to launch 15-minute prediction markets on Polygon

Polymarket integrates Chainlink to launch 15-minute prediction markets on Polygon

The post Polymarket integrates Chainlink to launch 15-minute prediction markets on Polygon appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Polymarket, a decentralized prediction market platform, and Chainlink, an oracle network, have announced an integration of the Chainlink data standard into Polymarket’s resolution process. The partnership will focus on enhancing the accuracy and speed of asset pricing resolutions. According to the announcement, the two companies are set to launch new 15-minute markets featuring near-instant settlement and industry-leading security. Polymarket’s integration of Chainlink is now live on the Polygon mainnet. This will enable the creation of secure, real-time prediction markets around asset pricing. It will include hundreds of live crypto trading pairs.  JUST IN: Polymarket partners with Chainlink “to launch 15-minute crypto price markets featuring near-instant settlement and industry-leading security.” pic.twitter.com/ZwGdjjoUXq — Watcher.Guru (@WatcherGuru) September 12, 2025   Plans to expand into additional markets.  Besides deterministic markets with a clear and final outcome, Polymarket and Chainlink are also looking into ways to make Chainlink more useful for settling prediction markets with more subjective questions. This would make them less reliant on social voting systems and even lower the risk of an outcome. The two firms will marry well, given that Polymarket uses Polygon by default. Polygon will focus on delivering faster and cheaper transactions by processing transactions off the main Ethereum chain. Chainlink, on the other hand, will provide an oracle network that connects smart contracts on the blockchain with real-world external data. Chainlink uses decentralized oracle networks to provide predictable data sources that help solve Polymarket outcomes. The integration joins Chainlink Data Streams, which provides low-latency, timestamped, and verifiable oracle reports, with Chainlink’s Automation, which lets markets settle automatically and on time on the blockchain.  Polymarket’s decision to integrate Chainlink’s proven oracle infrastructure is a pivotal milestone that greatly enhances how prediction markets are created and settled. When market outcomes are resolved by high-quality data and tamper-proof computation from oracle…
